Political commentator and author Mercedes Schlapp along with her husband, Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) Chairman Matt Schlapp, are frequent guests on right-wing media outlets such as Real America's Voice.
On Sunday, the couple appeared on Steven Bannon's War Room and claimed to the show's namesake host that President Joe Biden's signature aviator sunglasses are left-wing "propaganda" props designed to make Biden seem tough.
"First, don't listen to the mainstream media because what they're trying to do is sell the propaganda that the Democrats are on the rise again," Schlapp said. "You'd know that when you see Joe Biden put on his aviator sunglasses and they give him this look of strength. And it's so it's such a lie and so its so critical to just not let that get you down.

I guess these two forgot who they had at the CPAC propaganda right wing fascist show in Dallas, and they more than likely even took a private plane ride over to see and have him appear on their fascist stage in Hungary, and has for that dirtbag Bannon who should have been thrown in jail yesterday....and if there was a Fairness Doctrine he wouldn't be able to pull this stunt everyday.....

Whiny losers.
